LINING.

Application filed July 2,

tures of the article of my invention.

In the drawing Figure 1 is a fragmentary inside view of a portion of a trousers garment taken' at the waist line and showin the waist band, the

overlying pieces of ma erial being cut away in such a manner as to expose the underlying pieces of material and to show their arrangement.

Figure 2 is a somewhat similar view on an enlarged scale showing a smaller fragmentof a garment, the material being sectioned at the righthand side of the view to illustrate the arrangement thereof a little more clearly than in Figure 1. v

Figure 3 is a perspective view illustrating a section of the cloth of which the garment is made, showing the lining sewed to the top edge of the cloth and overlying the same on the outside prior to turning the lining and top edge of the cloth in.

Figure 4 is a perspective view illustrating the next stage of the operation, i. e., turning the lining up and over to the inside of the garment, the figure showing the lining and cloth or garment material separated by a angle of substantially 180. V

Figure 5 is a fragmentary view looking at the garment from the inside and showing thelining in elevation, portions of the lining being broken away to illustrate the underlying parts.

1gure 6 is an elevation showing a pair of trousers with a waistband lining, in accordance withmy invention.

Figure 7 is'a view corresponding to F' ure 4 and illustrating a variation of stitc In order that the method and article 7 of the invention may be clearly understood, some of the various waistband constructions which may be made in accordance with the invention will be described.

In the drawings the cloth of which the garment is made is the darkly shaded portion 1. In producing the construction shown articularly in Figures 1,2 and 7, I have first sewed a piece of tape 2 to the edge of a 'canvas by a seam 6, the binding or lining 1924. Serial No. 723,825.

strip of canvas 3 by a seam 4, and have then sewed a piece of twilled fabric 5 formin the lining material, to the opposite edge 0 the material being sewed near its edge to one side of the canvas near one edge by said seam 6, and the tape being sewed along its edge to the other side-of the canvas along the opposite edge thereof by the seam 4. The lining '-material which is wider than the canvas is then turned under the edge of the canvas near which it is sewed by the seam 6 and folded back until its opposite edge is under the tape 2. T

The tape and the lining material are then cross-stitched together by passing the binding through a cross-stitching machine, the cross-stitching being indicated by reference character 27. The lining is then laid on the (I outside of the garment along the to edge with the cross-stitching on the line which is intended to form the exact top edge of the garment, and. sewed thereto through the cross-stitching, the seam being indicated by reference character 9. The lining and the top edge of thev cloth with it are then turned over inside the garment whereit may be again sewed by stitching 8 and presed or pressed without sewing in: such a manner that the cross stitching as aforesaid comes ust inside the top edge of the garment.

In Figures 3, 4 and 5 I have illustrated a waist band corresponding exactly as to all its parts to the band illustrated in Figures 1,- 2 and 7, except that for the line of crossstitching '27 illustrated therein, I have substituted a line of stitching 17, also this stitching-17 occupies the same position and relation to the lining and garment as does the stitching 27 in the construction above described but the lineof stitching 9 which sewsthe lining to the garment fabric instead of extending through the cross stitching extends along the line' of cross stitching 17 parallel to and immediately adjacent the same.

The tape 2 and the lining material 5 are sewed together by this line of stitching 17 exactly as described in regard to the placing. III of the cross-stitching 27, and the is then laid on the outside of the rment along the top edge, with the stitchlng 17 on the line which is intended to form the exacttop edge of the garment, and sewed thereto along, the stitching 17 the sewing indicated by reference character 9 m be instances, and then turned down inside the garment.

In this connection I would have it understood that the various lines of stitching ineluding the line of hemstitching 7 and the lines of stitching 17 and 27 which appear at the top edge of the lining of the waist-band of my garment, are similar to each other and particularly adapted to this purpose in that the stitches or some of the stitches which make up the line of stitching, extend transversely to the general direction of the line of stitching, though not necessarily at right angles to said line.

Having thus described my invention, what I claim and desire to secure by Letters Patent is:

In a garment a Waist band lining consisting of lining material stitched to form a line thereof along the line of said first line of stitching, the edge of the lining and the edge of the cloth being turned in substantially on the second line of stitching, so that the first I mentioned line of stitching appears at the top edge of the lining giving the appearance of a hand sewed lining.
